Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic reforming of toluene and naphthalene (model tar) by char supported nickel catalyst
Kezhen Qian,Ajay Kumar +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used red cedar char collected from downdraft bed gasification was chemically activated into activated carbon and impregnated with nickel acetate and nickel nitrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of torrefaction and densification on switchgrass pyrolysis products
TL;DR: The torrefaction of switchgrass improved its oxygen to carbon ratio and energy content, and densification enhanced depolymerization of cellulose and hemicellulose during pyrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Digital image processing for measurement of residence time distribution in a laboratory extruder
TL;DR: In this article, a non-labor intensive, non-destructive method based on image processing was developed to measure residence time distribution in a laboratory extrusion process and the a∗ value was measured using image processing instead of a colorimeter to determine concentration of tracer in the product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engine power generation and emission performance of syngas generated from low-density biomass
TL;DR: In this article, a novel gasification system that can use underutilized low density biomass resources to produce power and electricity with high efficiency yet minimum set-up requirement and low emissions was introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced ethanol production by Clostridium ragsdalei from syngas by incorporating biochar in the fermentation medium
TL;DR: Results showed that media containing RCBC and PLBC improved ethanol production by 16.3% and 58.9%, respectively, compared to YE medium, which was considered to contribute in enhancement of ethanol production.
